About the Author
Sharlene Spires lives in a small town in North Central Florida with her husband, Michael, and their three daughters: Amanda, Georgiana, and Madalina. The Spires’ began their adoption journey in 1999, traveling to Romania as a family of three and returning home as a family of fi ve. The Grandsisters was written for her many nieces and nephews, but especially for Chelsea, who didn’t think it was fair that her cousin should get “two, and not just one” new sisters.
